AnimeNext 2010 cosplay photoshoot

Ladyofthethread as Count D

Source: Pet Shop of Horrors

This is one of those costumes that makes you say "...damn, I seriously need to get some photos", and thankfully ladyofthethread was willing to oblige putting it back on despite the insane heat outside. Extra thanks for that, and I think we managed a nice colorful set. Seriously, this costume's damn impressive.

The haze in this pic wasn't photoshop - it was so hot outside taking my longer lens out of my backpack caused enough temperature difference to make it fog up. It thankfully appears to have survived that, but damn, that was a scare...

Those pieces were all hand-painted then appliqued to her kimono. The result was quite impressive...
